I upgraded to TB v115.10.1 and find it somewhat difficult versus previous app.

My problem is the same as with previous versions - I cannot resize the message pane. On Classic View left pane I have 20+ email accounts listed. On top right pane I have the inbox for a selected email account and takes 1/2 of window. On bottom right pane, the individual message displays with header and takes the other 1/2. The message pane height size can be reduced with mouse but not increased. I want it to take at least 3/4 of right pane to make previewing emails easier.

In older versions it was possible to do this but not for several years. Any suggestions as to how to edit the settings? Nothing seems to be available that I can see.

 Thanks!

I need a filter on a message to FULLY FINISH before a next message starts to be filtered. The "help" (quotes because it's an abyssal crap) says that simply ending the filter with Stop Filter Execution does it - but that's simply NOT TRUE: calling a console program in the filter, I can see five DOS boxes opening at the same time with five messages matching, i.e. the filters on the next message DID NOT wait! So... what can I do??

All of the above is because I'm getting "Too many simultaneous connections on the server". I'd like to limit the concurrency, but it only seems to be possible in IMAP, while this connection is a POP. Why only IMAP??!

Pretty straight forward I signed[into my Mozilla account it told me I could at à device by simply hitting sign in and then ready to scan but I'm already signed on on mobile and when I try and hit sign in it does absolutely nothing

When I select a line of text, normally it would get deleted/overwritten when typing a new line of text, but when I select text in Firefox and begin typing again, it simply deletes the first word in the selection and keeps the rest. Is there a setting to have ALL text selected deleted/overwritten when new text is entered? Selecting one word overwrites the whole word but when an entire line to be deleted is selected, only the first word is deleted and typing begins where that word ends.

The last update (which was VERY rocky... I had to reinstall and functionality has NOT been great since) eliminated the Bookmarks icon from the top ribbon. I've looked through settings, but find no way to restore it. Can it be restored? I now have to click the menu, Settings, and THEN Bookmarks.

Hi

When Thunderbird is started maximized it overlap taskbar if is set to hide and taskbar won't show until Thunderbird is minimized and maximized. Another way is to press the Win key two times. Then the hided taskbar can be shown/use. The same thing happens to Firefox. Only when is first started. Then if Firefox is minimized and maximized, press Win key two times, press F11 two times then the hided taskbar show/hide normal.

It is a setting that can be changed to start Thunderbird and Firefox in full screen and do not overlap hided taskbar?

I have lost the send, attach buttons on my new emails? not sure what I touched.

I can recieve emails and reply but when I want to write a new email I am not able to send it as the button to send is gone.

also the New Message button is gone.

There is a way to add a folder to a Thunderbird account that combines other folders. The one I want to create would be "Inbox and Sent emails combined". I did it in the past, but I can't remember how to do it anymore. Can someone help with this? I am running Thunderbird 140.8.0esr (64-bit) on Linux Mint.

Thunderbird just updated and the next time I opened it all of the folders I created and the emails I'm storing within them are missing. I found my profile as directed. I'm not sure if I have a backup of it. I've included the screenshot as you ask for. I know that those folders and emails are there as I was playing around with the the 3 lines > View and when I moved between the different choices I saw my folders/emails are all in there.

Any assistance you can provide is appreciated!

Mozilla gave assurances that AI features would be opt-in. The most recent update automatically turned AI features ON and I had to open settings to block them. This is opt-out, not opt-in. I find this betrayal of my trust as a longtime user disturbing.

Is it possible to make Thunderbird make better use of screen realestate on large devices such as tablets?

In my opinion it should be possible to get a view that is more similar to the desktop version, where the content is laid out in 3 columns:

1. List of accounts and mailboxes
2. List of messages in the selected folder/mailbox
3. The email/message that has been selected.

See attached for what it looks like in the gmail app, for comparison. On Gmail they only have two columns, but even on there it's making effective use of the space.

I see there are 3rd Party Message Filters. However, I'm not looking for those. I'm looking at the Tools> Message Filters>Filter name for:, where you can add Email Details>choose what part of the email, and then move Message to. I want to be able to view the Filter name alphabetically in the Folder(s)...without having to sort so many of them individually.

Example:

- Filter name: 123@domain.com - Match: From - Move Message to: Spam - Message Filters (alphabetically)

Any help would be appreciated.

When copying and pasting from one application to another, by using Ctrl + Shift + V to paste without format to Google Docs, I keep getting a "Paste" pop up that I've never gotten until now. It keeps getting in the way and I don't see a way to remove it.

It's making copying and pasting very difficult and is driving me up the wall.
